Empirical formula is the simplest formula showing the simplest ratio of atoms in a compound. Calculated as shown;
we start by calculating the number of moles of each atom;
moles of nickel = 9.11 g ÷ 58.7 g = 0.155 moles
moles of fluorine = 5.89 g ÷ 19 g = 0.31 moles
Then we get the ratio of the moles of nickel to that of flourine
That is 0.155 : 0.31 (dividing by the smallest)
0.155/0.155 : 0.31/0.155
we get 1:2 ( the simplest ratio)
Therefore the empirical formula is nif2
Answer:
Precise but not accurate.
Explanation:
We can tell the performance of the balance is precise, because the repeated measurements give values close to one another.
However, the performance of the balance is not accurate, as the mean value of the repeated measurements (195.587) is not close to the value considered as true (in this case the standard calibration mass with a certified value of 200.002 g).
When a liquid goes from a liquid state to a gaseous state it is called evaporation
Answer:
use the rule of speed
Explanation:
speed =distance over time
Answer:
The mass ratio of oxygen rounded to the nearest whole no. 3 : 2
Explanation:
According to Law of Multiple proportion when two elements combine to make two or more different compounds, the mass ratio of the two element in the first compound, when divided by the mass ratio of the second compound , form a simple whole number ratio.
Compound A contains 1.34 g of sulfur for every 0.86 g of oxygen
Compound B contains 11.63 g of sulfur for every 10.49 g of oxygen
Ratio of oxygen in each compound
always put the larger number over the smaller number.
